Narrow-gauge railway in Rudy

Highlight • Historical Site

Rudy offers an interesting attraction for narrow-gauge railway enthusiasts. Although the original station has not survived in its entirety, you can still see fragments of the old infrastructure, including the preserved locomotive shed building. The narrow-gauge line, which reached Rudy in the late 19th century, was an important element of local transport. The currently preserved section of the route can be an interesting point on a bicycle trip, allowing you to discover the history of the region.
